So, you missed a day of Birth Control and now you are spot bleeding. This is normal, but it is important to realize that you are not protected from pregnancy. You should continue taking your birth control pills as normal and use an additional form of contraception for 2 weeks.

That is the cycle you are supposed to naturally be on if you took the pill for 3 weeks then began bleeding. The last 7 pills in the pack are "sugar pills' to keep you in the daily habit of taking a pill. During these "sugar pills" you should have your period. When a person begins any hormone regime they can change their bodies cycle and have break-through bleeding as well. When you first start taking the pill it's best to stay prepared at all times for an instance of this bleeding. If it is exceptionally heavy, long or bothersome then you need to discuss it with a professional.

This is the withdrawal bleed. It will occur 7-14 days after stopping the pill.

Well, I guess the next thing you should do is take a pregnancy test.

This is normal - your body is adjusting from being on the pill to having a normal menstrual cycle again, it can take up to a year for your periods to regulate again.

You just started to take the pill and a week later you started to breakthrough bleed and it is on and off and now that you are almost done with the pack how long does breakthrough bleeeding last for?

Hello, Birth control should not cause you to experience withdrawal bleeding UNLESS you have recently stopped taking birth control. Because you've just started taking BCP and you're experiencing withdrawal bleeding, this most likely means the doseage of birth control is not suitable for you or you need a different form of birth control. See your Doctor and meanwhile use a condom for protection until you've got a new birth control and have been taking it for one month.


You stopped taking birth control pill because you thought you were pregnant but then you started bleeding could you still be pregnant?

In your circumstances it is probably best for you to go and discuss the situation with a qualified medical practitioner (a doctor) as soon as possible.


Why do you get your period two times in one month if it stopped this past Monday and just started again and you're on the birth control patch but you just had surgery yesterday?

If you had surgery, you are probably taking an antibiotic. These can interfere with the patch and cause breakthrough bleeding.


What if you still have period while taking next pack of birth control?

that is quite common. i had this problem for months because my birth control was ultra low dose (yaz). i switched to a regular low dose (yasmin) and the bleeding stopped and went back to a normal cycle. if you just started taking BC, keep doing it. if after three months the bleeding is still frequent, talk to your doctor. you may need a higher dose.

Yes it can, i stopped taking my birth control and i started getting nauseated and all. Its different for all girls.But yes it can lead to throwing up


Why do you not have to take birth control during your period?

I'm afraid you have it backwards; you have a show of vaginal bleeding because you stopped taking hormones. It's not the other way around -- you didn't stop taking the hormones because you started bleeding. Please discuss this matter with your health care provider. So many women see bleeding and stop their birth control pill, putting themselves at risk of pregnancy. You should make sure this point is clear so that you use your method correctly.
